DESCRIPTION

       Shutter is a feature-rich screenshot program. You can take a screenshot of a specific
       area, window, your whole screen, or even of a website - apply different effects to it,
       draw on it to highlight points, and then upload to an image hosting site, all within one
       window.

               gif, bmp). Additionally it is possible to save to pdf, ps or svg.

               Please note: There are several wildcards available, like

                %Y = year
                %m = month
                %d = day
                %T = time

                $profile = name of current profile
                $R = random char (e.g. $RRRR = ag4r)
                %NN = counter

               The string is interpretted by strftime. See "man strftime" for more examples.

               As an example: shutter -f -e -o './%y-%m-%d_$w_$h.png' would create a file named
               '11-10-28_1280_800.png' in the current directory.
